Electronics

We are surrounded by Electronics – from computers and games consoles, to traffic systems and hospital equipment. As one of the few colleges in the country to offer A Level Electronics, we can offer you an ideal blend of practical and theoretical learning. This course is an ideal complement to many other A Levels such as Computer Science, Physics and Maths.

Course Outline

You will gain a thorough grounding in basic electronics and will be introduced to some of the many exciting communication and control applications. You will be able to simulate, model and prototype circuits. The project component of the course will allow you to gain hands-on experience at designing, building and testing specific systems and those necessary for your project.

Assessment

Assessment for this course will be largely through two exams which will account for 80% of your mark with a practical assignment in system design making up the other 20%.
